He’s finished no worse than second in eight of his nine starts. Public Sector is another turf prospect to put on your radar. It was a magnificent ride and a real professional performance by both the horse and him.” He was saving ground and ahead of a lot of the other runners in the race, and he timed it just perfect … The bottom line is, I think Irad had complete control of the whole field throughout the race. “For him to get out and get good position and be clear and out of trouble was a great move.
